You can still get to a4 without killing the entire council in trav.. if you are walking yourself,. so you make the flail and all, you can get the flail to drop but not have to kill the entire council. Break the orb, get into durance, and still get yourself to a4

been playing since 2005-6 and i never knew this. only found out cause my sorc is fire/cold and couldn't kill one of the members.

Speedrunners do this all the time :)

If you want to kill them, the trick is to static the last guy down, get lightning merc and telekiesis.

Or get a lightning staff with +2 and some skill for the final blow.

Ive never done a speed run in all my years playing lol. I probably should do a few test runs. Would be interesting.

you can also bypass trav by entering a player's game who has beat trav (door to durace of hate is open) and going thru durance to get the wp
then you go in your own game, wp to durance 2, then go beat meph

i've used this a few times but i don't think trav drops benefit much if at all from quest open tho
and yes it's another quest glitch (like andy/dury) that most don't know/use

I remember people having dury-mules back in the day!

Basically a char with act 2 completed apart from duriel that would create the game for rushes and new chars would go straight to duriel without the staff etc

Patched in .10 I believe

Historically you would create the game with the mule, the leecher being rushed would join and the mule leave.

No it cannot be reused and its not very useful. Best you can do is rushing 7 mules in one game and then use them one by one for 7 rushes.

There is another version that can be reused where you don't kill Duriel with it, but it just allows you to skip staff and not clearing tal tomb near the orifice.
